Good for Fox. Legolas Send a noteboard - 27/01/2010 12:38:39 AM
Sad that none of the channels are trusted by even half of respondents, though, and further proof of the dramatic political polarization of the country...
Still, remarkable results, especially for foreigners who hear all those bad things about Fox but can't really watch any of the channels and so don't know that the others are just as bad or, if we are to believe the judgement of the respondents to this poll, worse.
